This is difficult to explain but I will do my best.
I need to route traffic coming from an NTserver to a linux server. My problem is there is a PIX firewall that is recieving the traffic from the NT server instead of the Linux BOX. I will try to draw an ASCII diagram to explain better.
INTERNET
| |
LINUX PIX

---------
|
(1)Cisco 3600 (WAN)

(2)Cisco 3600 (WAN)
|
NTSERVER

INTERNET Address 207.248.143.35
LINUX address external 207.248.143.40
internal 172.16.9.240
(1)Cisco 3600 (WAN) 172.16.9.254
NT SERVER 172.16.10.125

My question is how can I get the (1)Cisco router to send all traffic coming from the NT server to Linux server instead of the Pix firewall? I'm new to cisco routers
if you can be as detailed as possible, Thank you in advance.
 
Configuration in (1) Cisco router
----------------------------------------------------------

ip forward-address 172.16.10.125
!
interface ethernet 1
ip helper-address 172.16.9.240
 
My opinion is that you need a route map. This will allow the router to examine either the source of the packet or the destination (or both) to make a route choice. You can then have packet that come from the NT source route to the Linux and all others by way of the Pix.


Read on cisco web site for route map.

good luck
